Reading at home:
Dear Children,
We have put together some FREE resources to help with reading at home. Please remember to read as much as possible, it's the best way to improve your fluency and understanding. Reading is also a great way to relax and unwind, that is important too! This page will be updated regularly with new ideas, so please check back often. To discover more, click HERE visit the School Library page.
Happy Reading!
Mr Parkinson
School Librarian
